About this book
At Victoria Station, Marjorie waits for Leonard Leeds to return from the front, knowing that their delayed wedding must fit into four days of leave. Their earlier plans for a large American celebration have given way to a hurried marriage in England. Hetty Hemenway follows their reunion from the crowded platform to Leonard's family home near Richmond, where welcome and worry mingle in the smallest gestures.
This short war story places the couple's happiness beside the losses Leonard struggles to understand. A conversation on the sand brings memories of school friends who have died, while a train ride to London turns tea and sandwiches into a brief taste of married life.
